Chapter 73 Clearing the Path with Wine
At the same time, Fang Senyan also received a prompt:
"Warning: Your relationship with the important plot character, Supervisor Parker, has fractured and may decline at any time."
Obviously, Fang Senyan's excessive demands had also displeased Parker, but Fang Senyan smiled calmly:
"I will definitely convey your sincerity to my superiors one hundred and twenty percent and expedite his signature on the investment."
Thus, Fang Senyan successfully shook hands with the Avatar protagonist, who had yet to have a soul inhabit it. During this process, he used a specially made needle hidden in his fingers to pierce his palm and draw a little blood. It was truly seamless. When the others were slightly distracted, Fang Senyan excused himself to the restroom and dripped the blood onto Kerihan Redfield's lucky bracelet. Immediately, a very obvious change appeared:
Kerihan Redfield's Lucky Bracelet: (First Layer of the Bloody Seal Unlocked)
Weaver: Shinji Mikami
Rank: Seventh Order
Current Unlocked Effect: Grants you mastery of the Fifth Order passive ability: Luck.
Use requires consumption of 100 potential points, 10,000 universal points, and 1000 merit points (this merit value was not obtained through trading).
Unlocking the Second Bloody Seal Effect: Grants you mastery of the Sixth Order passive ability: Great Luck.
Unlocking the Third Bloody Seal Effect: Gives you a chance to master the Seventh Order passive ability: True Luck. There is also a chance of being cursed, randomly losing one of your currently mastered abilities.
Since one of the three objectives of this trip had been achieved, Fang Senyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he bid farewell to Supervisor Parker and walked out of the laboratory. Jiao Shi then contacted Fang Senyan:
"Boss, Zi and Huo Shigang's group had a falling out. Her intention is to hire us to fight for her and help her complete that damned mission."
Fang Senyan smiled and said:
"Don't rush to answer her. Drag it out."
Mo Gansha immediately chuckled:
"That's right, we can be said to be a rare commodity now. No matter which side we lean towards, it will be an absolute advantage. Anyway, we are selling, so we will definitely sell to the highest bidder. Dragging it out will have a better effect."
Fang Senyan said seriously:
"I never thought about helping them do that final follow-up side mission. The difficulty of this mission is probably beyond everyone's imagination. Otherwise, how could I bear to give it up?"
Mo Gansha asked in confusion:
"Right now, the Omatikaya here are still very friendly to humans. Even if the detection fails, at most they will be driven back in disgrace. The difficulty of picking the Leaves of the Tree of Souls probably won't be very risky, right?"
Fang Senyan squinted his eyes and said:
"If I remember correctly, the coordinates of the Tree of Souls in the original storyline were told to the Colonel by the protagonist, Jack Sully, and the Colonel regarded it as very important information."
Jiao Shi immediately tasted the implication of Fang Senyan's words:
"You mean the target given by this final side mission is not the real Tree of Souls?"
"There's a high possibility." Fang Senyan said seriously, "And at this time, those colonizers have already left this world. If the space wants to increase the difficulty, then it can only be done in the natural environment." "...The difficulty of the first side mission we experienced, the beast tide, goes without saying. It tests the contractor's strength and courage. The second side mission is obviously inclined to test the contractor's wisdom and communication. Then the third side mission, which is also the final side mission, is specifically designed for only three people to complete. It is probably a test of the participating contractors' unity..." Do you think these people can be united?
Fang Senyan's words convinced Jiao Shi and Mo Gansha.
Fang Senyan continued, "Whether it's Zi or Huo Shigang who comes to you, you should be duplicitous and try to give them the feeling that you are a rare commodity. "Hmph, as long as you drag it out for twenty-four hours, they will naturally be as busy as monkeys with their own missions. Even if they know we have no intention of helping, they will have no time to care! What we have to do is something that cannot tolerate any unexpected mistakes, especially at the very beginning. It can be said that one wrong step can lead to complete failure!"
At this time, Mo Gansha said with some worry:
"It's just that the data we obtained doesn't have what we need either. I guess that Dr. Grace hid some secrets and didn't write them down. Otherwise, anyone could take her place. But Boss, your relationship with her is already one of hatred... Do you want Jiao Shi and me to try to please her?"
"No need." Fang Senyan said lightly, "Even if the two of you try to cram at the last minute, I'm afraid it will be too late, and you may not even be able to find out the truth. In this world, the answer to what we want may not even be known to Dr. Grace."
Jiao Shi pondered:
"Could it be that you want to... ask the Omatikaya for information?" A bright light flashed in Fang Senyan's eyes:
"That's right! The reason why I didn't consider the Omatikaya before was because I lacked a point of entry, and I hadn't personally seen the Omatikaya's attitude towards humans. But after witnessing Tsu'tey the other day, this idea germinated in my mind."
"The RDA Corporation and the Omatikaya have been completely at peace for more than ten years. You can't say that the Omatikaya have no desires or demands from Earthlings. During the honeymoon period, at least the Omatikaya children attended the school founded by Dr. Grace. The reason why they reached the point of war was because the Hell's Gate base had almost completely mined the surrounding Pandora ore. The only choice was the area under the Omatikaya's Hometree, which led to irreconcilable contradictions!"
"But we are different, and the A Corporation data we bought at a huge cost is definitely not useless. It records the Omatikaya's favorite thing, which is alcohol! Strong alcohol! I have been collecting several kilograms of strong alcohol through endless vodka bottles these days! Plus, I bought a considerable amount of it in the restaurant. It is enough to have a good relationship with them, and even more than enough. Let's set off!"
Although Fang Senyan knew the detailed coordinates of the Omatikaya's Hometree, even in a straight line, it was more than a hundred kilometers away. Traveling in the dense primeval forest, even powerful contractors would have to walk for at least three hours, even without encountering wild beasts.
Of course, Fang Senyan had also considered using the host, but he still had some concerns at this time, because this thing had no self-defense ability. Without an escort, it would be difficult to cope with emergencies, and it was also difficult to determine what the Omatikaya would react after seeing the host flying in the air.
So Fang Senyan shamelessly went to Supervisor Parker again. Without much effort, he learned that a Samson transport aircraft (SA-2) would be carrying out a flight mission tomorrow, so he asked the pilot to send them to a place ten kilometers away from the outer edge of the Omatikaya's Hometree. They would solve the rest of the matter themselves. Parker could easily decide on this small matter, so he still satisfied Fang Senyan.
During the flight, Fang Senyan and the others also witnessed the spectacle of the "Hallelujah Mountains" floating in the air, and couldn't help but marvel at this divine craftsmanship. After landing, the three of them had nothing to worry about, because in the previous three days, they had basically adapted to the bizarre primeval forest of Pandora. In addition, the information obtained from the RDA also recorded in detail the habits of some creatures, the distribution of terrain along the way, and so on. Therefore, they did not encounter any trouble along the way, and walked to a place five kilometers away from the outer edge of the Omatikaya's Hometree, where they encountered the Omatikaya cavalry in a fluorescent sunflower forest.
These three cavalrymen were riding six-legged heavy armored horses, looking very valiant and mighty. Fang Senyan estimated that their combat power was far above those uncivilized tribes that he had killed. And they didn't do anything, just showed a relatively cold attitude, and told these outsiders to leave, and kindly pointed out the direction back to the Hell's Gate base.
Fang Senyan turned around and dragged Jin Kuang out from behind him. Jin Kuang immediately walked up with a smiling face, almost smiling like a flower:
"Brave Omatikaya warriors, we are here to visit Prince Tsu'tey, to thank him for saving my nephews from the ferocity of the Hammerhead Titanothere last time."
As Jin Kuang spoke, he took out three simply processed and carved wooden tubes. "...There is no bamboo on Pandora, but there is a kind of tree that is hollow and has no knots in it. It is still a thoughtful gift to simply process it for holding wine"... Under his high charm, the three Omatikaya warriors did not have any hostility in the first place, so they accepted the gift. First, they praised the exquisite carvings on the wooden tubes, and then they smelled the aroma of the wine inside. They couldn't help but raise their heads and drink it. As soon as they drank it, they immediately glowed and smiled.
As the saying goes, those who take things are soft-handed, and those who eat things are soft-mouthed. Moreover, Fang Senyan and the others had sincerely come to thank their tribal warriors, so naturally the entire Omatikaya tribe also had a lot of prestige. They naturally received a very courteous reception. When Jin Kuang distributed all the gifts in his hands, the entire Omatikaya tribe was filled with a strong aroma of wine.
These Na'vi were even more enthusiastic about them, and exceptionally invited them to their Hometree to treat them, but they still did not activate their reputation. It is estimated that they mostly needed to obtain the approval of the Seeds of the Tree of Souls (that is, the things in the original plot that float in the air and look like dandelion seeds) to do so.
